REMARKABLE FREAK OF NATURE.

The find of salt at the kingman gas well
calls to mind a remarkable freak Of nature
which happened in Meade county in 1879.
On the trail between Dodge City and No
beetle, Texas, In the spring of 1879, a space
of earth about 500 feet in circumference
sank which Was supplsnted by deep body
of water. The water is about sixty per
cent. salt. The well or lake. lies about two
miles from Meade Center. and Is visited by
hundreds every season who hathe In the
cool. invigorsting lake The water is over
100 feet deep. About three years ago a
Michigan company erected vats
and elevated the water
which was evsporated and fine salt pro-
cured. With the settlement Of Meade
county the salt well came prominently be-
fore the people and company was formed
and the quarter section upon which the
well is located was purchased from the
government as saline land. Bath houses
are TO be erected and the place made q
resort. IS the water Is said TO contain ex-
cellent medicinal properties. Recently the
cornpanv has aISs concluded to manufacture
salt If salt water can be successfully
eyaporaied and money made by so slow
process. how much more valuable must

RUSSIA TAKES A HAND.
From the Sitka Alaskan.

From the Sitka Alaskan.
The highly important news was received
in private letter fortnight since from
Ounalaska by one of the territorial officials
residing in Sitka. to the effect that several
American and British schooners have been
seized by Russian man-Of war during the
present season for illicit sealing In the Rus
sian portion of the Behring sea and Arctic
ocean, and for trading In Russian waters
without license. Under the Russian law
1t is enacted that all vessels trading In the
northern waters under the cars dominion,
must have permit for the purpose from
the governor of Eastern Siberia, who re-
sides at Vladivostok. This Is large town
on the northwestern coast line of the Sea
of Japan, at which there Is navy yard
and regular man of-war commanded by
admirals. 1t is the custom of these vessels
to cruise through the Russian portion of
Behring Sea and the Attic Ocean for the
purpose of pr Dtecting the fisheries and the
interests of me Muscovite subjects. All
craft found without license are sliced and
confscated 1t would appear from this
item of intelligence that the Russian gov
eminent intends TO adopt the same course
as the American administration and enforce
its right of ownership over the portion Of
Behring Sea and the Attic Ocean not in
cluded In the cession to the United States
in 1867.

The announcement of the death of Gen.
Don iphan, which occurred quite recently,
calls to mind some interesting incidents In
his life lie was an historic character, be-
ing one Of the heroes of the Mexican war,
and although of southern birth, during the
late rebellion, his voice was always on the
81 de of the union When he heard that
5 outh Carolina had passed the act of Sc
cession, Gen. Doniphan caused handbills
to be printed and distributed announcing
tn at he wished TO advise the citizens of
Clay county, Missouri, what course to take
in the existing trouble Snow was on the
ground at the time. but six thousand peo-
pie came and stood In the open air while
he addressed them several hours so con-
vincingly that the county kept loyal up to
the time of the first battle of Bull Run, az

ATHREATENING EVIL,

An estimate of the population Of China,
based upon official data, puts it at 1892, 600
900. as against 3,000,0 600 estimated In
1S42.-Astorian.
1t is easy to explain the decrease of over
10000 900 Chinese In forty five years In
view of the fact that these people have
been flooding every other country by mil
lions where they could reap reward for
their toll and privation, denied in their
land. Vast as were the multitudes which
I'm der Ghengis Kahn and Tlmour poured
down from the plains of Tartary to over
whelm the opulent regions of the
world" they were nothing compar-
ed to the irruption Of Mongols
who are threatening to supplant
m email labor as well as vast numbers of
skilled artisans in the United States and
Europe The evils of unrestricted pauper
i'm migration are beginning to awaken
thoughtful men of the peril to our institu-
ito ms and in recent interview Judge Field
of the United States supreme court speaks
in the following pertinent way: There is
at present more enlightened opinion in
the east on the Chinese question; and the
necessity of further restrictive measures
is more than ever apparent.
l, myself, have always thought that
the immigration should be restricted
to those Engaged in foreign commerce, in
importation from China or expectation from
the United States to China. Lsborers and
mechanics should be excluded 1t Is not
for the interest of our country to permit
the immigration of persons who cannot
assimilate with our people here. think
there could be no objection to allowing
Chinese to travel through the country, or
to attend the higher schools Of the land if
they should desire so to do, but collisions
between lsborers and mechanics will con-
st antly arise If that class is allowed to come
and reside In this country"

CRUMBS OF CONSOLATION.

The Chicago Inter Ocean remarks that
some of the southern papers are squeezing
| comfort out of the recollection of the
war after the manner Of the young man
who gloated over the thought that he would
whip the school teacher when he grew
| stronger. The Atlanta Constitution, in re-
plying to very temperate article In the
Hartford Courant, insists that the secession
movement which resulted In the war was
not treason because 1t had been discussed as
a policy both by the north and the south,
but 1t adds:
The war has settled this matter to this
extent-that secession Is revolution, and II
revolution is unsuccessful 1t Is rebellion.
As to the secession of the future, we may
be permitted to remark that 1t will originate
in the New England staets on some fnvo.
lous plea, and when that Is the case the
south and southern troops will be found
ready and anxious to put 1t down. The
north has made its bed by force Of arms
and 1t will have to lie on 1t. No matter
what grievance 1t has, the grievance will
have to be settled in the union.
The Constitution, or the constituency for
whom it speaks, is entitled to all the COM
fort it can squeeze out of the remark. If
1t gives the Constitution any satisfaction to
believe that the New England states will
ever on any pretext attempt to break up
the union, or If the southern people are
keeping themselves in training with the
idea that when that time does come they
will sweep the ground with their New Eng
land neighbors, no one will object. The
spectacle of the old states rights enthu-
siasts resting on their arms and laying in
wait for the old Republicans of the north
to secede from the Union is harmless and
an entertaining one. This living in hope
of the southern troops that they will be
called upon some day to turn the tables on
New England is better than clinging to the
lost cause. We have no doubt that 1t
would give supreme satisfaction to the ex-
Confederates to march up through the
border states and invade Massachusetts,
but that time will never come.
The north has made its bed. 1t chose to
stand by the Union. The south now ad-
mits that that position was correct. The
south took the opposite course and it met
with disaster. The result of the war which
developed SO strong Union feeling will
stand as a warning to any state or section.
II the southern statesmen are honest In
their protestations the south believes that it
was better for the southern states to remain
in the Union than 60 out If the southern
people are honest there is now a strong
Union sentiment in the south and dispO-
sition to cling to the Union, come what
may 1t is not stating the case fairly to say
that the north made simply rule which
the southern states must accept. 1t would
be fairer to say that, in the interest of the
south as well as the north, certain great
commonwealth of the United States resist
ed the attempt of certain revolutionary
leaders to destroy the Union under which
all the states had made such progress. If
this statement is accepted then there should
be no resentment on the part Of those who
were compelled to accept what they now
admit was right.

Henry Ives seems to be holding an even

succeeded in keeping hid the books of the

that if they will lend him three million dol

ASHLAND.

To the Editor of The Eagle.
Clark county has been thoroughly wei
the past week with heavy and continued
rains. A large acreage of wheat and rye
will be sown and the already large number
of orchards will be materially increased
this fall.
Ashland's $4,000 school house, which
was just being enclosed, was totally de
stroyed by fire about 6 o'clock. the 22d
inst. The fire originated OF top of the
building, supposed to have caught from
the soldering stove of workmen engaged
in putting on the iron cornice. Loss
$4,000; no insurance. The loss falls heav
ilv on the contractors, Messrs. Smith &
Andrickson, of Englewood, but they pro-
pose to 20 ahead and rebuild and comply
with their contract, only asking an extern
sion of time.
Our city is stirred up over bold burg

law went tinto effec. The stolen property
was found today in dugout about two
miles from the city, and four arrests OF
